Main internet connection

  1. Minimum Internet Speed Requirement
    1. Each team member should have a primary internet connection with a minimum speed of 300Mbps for optimal remote work performance.
  2. Check Current Internet Speed
    1. Test the current internet speed using a reliable online speed test tool (e.g., speedtest.net). If the speed is below 300Mbps, consider upgrading your plan with your internet service provider (ISP).
  3. Wired Connection Preferred
    1. Whenever possible, connect your computer directly to the router using an Ethernet cable. Wired connections are generally more stable and faster than Wi-Fi connections.

Backup Internet Connection

In addition to the primary internet connection, set up a backup connection to ensure uninterrupted work in case of an outage.

This backup connection could be from a different ISP, a mobile hotspot, or a secondary Wi-Fi network. Just ensure it has a decent speed.

  1. Good examples of a backup internet
    1. Alternative Wired Internet such as Converge or other providers
    2. Stable 5G mobile hotspot
    3. Starlink
  2. Slow or unreliable backup options to avoid
    1. Wireless, prepaid modems by local companies (Globe, Smart in the Philippines)
    2. LTE/3G mobile hotspot
